कदम-तर भली भाँति भयो भोजन । हलधर कहत करौ अब अचबन गैयाँ भूली जोजन ॥ जो भावै सो और कछु लैहौ करत सखा सब नाहीं । चलि गाँइनि देखौ 'परमानंद' घटा चहूँ दिसि छाहीं ॥

Beneath the kadamba tree, the meal was taken very well. Haladhar says, “Now rinse your mouths; the cows have wandered far away.”

जो भावै सो और कछु लैहौ करत सखा सब नाहीं । चलि गाँइनि देखौ 'परमानंद' घटा चहूँ दिसि छाहीं ॥
“Take anything more that pleases you,” but all the companions decline. “Come, let us go and look after the cows.” Parmanand says: clouds have spread across all directions.
